[Hiring] Software Developer @ForTheVeteran

Role Description

ForTheVeteran is hiring a Software Developer to help build, customize, and scale the systems that power our internal operations and client experience.

We’re seeking a technically curious developer with experience in Zoho platforms, Deluge scripting, and JavaScript who can build workflows, integrations, and data solutions that drive efficiency across the business. This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys solving complex problems, working across systems, and continuously improving processes through smart automation and scalable development.

• Perform data migrations, ETL processes, synchronization tasks, and scaling adjustments as the business grows.
• Execute daily system maintenance: health checks, updates, backups, patching, monitoring (heavy Zoho focus), and hybrid/cloud infrastructure tasks as assigned.
• Resolve end-user support tickets: troubleshoot hardware/software/network/access/email/Zoho application issues, prioritize/assign/escalate, meet SLAs, and contribute to reducing recurring problems.
• Assist with user access management, permissions, roles, MFA setup, and basic security/policy enforcement.
• Support procurement and vendor tools by testing/evaluating solutions and providing technical feedback.
